Live view wont turn on and pictures only expose the bottom half

No image Hi, My DSC-F717 has been sitting unused for 2 months, but in safe place. When I turn it on now, everything works perfectly except there is no image in either the view finder or the display screen, almost as if the lense cap was on! All of the settings are sown in on the display but other than that the screen is black. When I try to film something it's the same, I get sound but but just a black image. I live in the Caribbean and don't have access to a Sony repair place so hope you can he

It happended something strange. I turned on the camera in P Mode and the exposure was 1/30 and aperture 5.6 for example. When I put in live view mode the exposure changed to "LO".

The camera and basically telling you that the shutter speed has dropped below 1/30 of a second. Any speed below this requires the use of a tripos. In "P" mode the shutter speed can drop as low as 30 seconds and the F-stop aperture will be the lowest ...

Canon T1i got wet in heavy rainstorm, now the only thing that happens is the blue indicator light on the live view button turns on when a battery is installed. I stored the body in in a sealed plastic bag with a dehydrating crystal product for several weeks, but the camera still won't work. Just that blue light... Any suggestions?

When I turn on my PowerShot A80 the view screen is distorted or blank. When I snap a picture it comes out black. I can still review pictures that I have already taken with no problem. I have put in new batteries but it doesn't help. When I turn on my Powershot A80 the view windo has light streaks moving from left to right or sometimes the view window does not light up to show the picture I'm trying to shoot

This sounds like it might be a defective CCD imager. If so, Canon should fix this for you for free, including free shipping both ways. This is regardless of your camera's warranty status. Please check the following two links for more info:\015\ ...

My new Nikon D3000 has no live view in the 3" view finder. I am not sure it is a fault or "by-design". Almost all simple digital camaras have live view finder. Someone help me please!

It doesn't have live view. That means you can only view them once you took a picture using the electronic view finder. But if you have d5000 and above then those have live view feature ...

My camera's LCD screen doesn't show the picture on the screen when camera is turned on, however you can see the picture once you turn the camera off and just want to view the picture. Also, the camera won't keep the picture on the screen to view past pictures, and reverts to turning the camera on and the lens zooms out.

Af? When I turn on my camera it won't go to view my pictures. It just flashes "AF" and the only thing I can do with it when I turn it on is take one picture.
